Probably needs its own thread considering we could play the winner at Wembley

think posh will win tonight 

Was out tonight so I recorded this and have just finished watching.

WTF?

For a neutral it was a superb watch with Wednesday's two early goals keeping the tension going - when I expected a procession. Last minute equaliser, Posh regain the lead in extra time and then another equaliser....the game was like a movie plot.

The emotions those two sets of fans must be feeling. Wow.

Unbelievable turnaround. I was at the home game against Wednesday and, if I remember rightly, most of us on here said that they were the best side we'd seen and would be thereabouts at the end. I hope we can join them at Wembley!

Hope the Peterborough fans took out the option to cancel your hotel room without any penalties.

Peterboroughways…

Is he local?

Is it just me that thought the ref started the Wednesday comeback. No way was their 1st a pen. The Wednesday player just ran straight into the Posh defender. Also how did Bannan stay on the pitch. He'd been booked, then at the begining of the 2nd half he took a Posh player out and totally got away with it. But all in all Peterborough gifted the game to Wednesday.

The obvious pullback late in the game got waved away by the ref when just about everyone else thought it must be a free kick and red card.

Ouch.  That was painful reading and I kept thinking how I'd be feeling this morning if that was us.  The poor bastards!  I nodded at the post that said;

Yes, there's losing and there's "the rest of the country is laughing at us" losing.  We've had our "Stoke" and this is their equivalent.  They will be scarred by that next time they are in the play offs, the feeling that even if you win the 1st leg 4-0 you're just setting yourself up for heartbreak that's on another level and leaves an emotional scar.

Some shite goalkeeping on show in those pens btw

Thought wednesday's were excellent in terms of power and placement

They all hit the back of the net, that’s what counts. From a keepers perspective they didn’t look at footwork and not one being saved out of 8 is disappointing

That stat means nowt.  He may well be a player who has a pot-shot whenever he's within 30 yards of the goal. He'd not be doing that if he played for us.

Didn't Okocha hold the record one season for the most number of shots without scoring in the Prem.  For such a talented passer and dribbler, he used to shoot from ridiculous situations.  We've gone to the other extreme now.  Somewhere in the middle like Per Frandsen or Alan Thompson would be useful.
